Final comments First, thanks for the help from all who gave constructive comments and examples. I have to agree with some of you that this software is a different animal - it always pays to try different things until you find the right solution for yourself. However, for the usual RTFM and...

Midi and audio output Ok, per the attached png, I have the vst with associated midi channel and audio output. No problems there. Now, what if I wanted to do this... 1. Midi channel is assigned to hardware, outboard sampler - yamaha A4000 2. The midi output must be assigned to a midi channel...

Midi and audio output Ok, I will take a look and try to reproduce on SL. Thanks for the awesome graphic, I truly appreciate your knowledge and help.

vst... Hmm, that's what I don't see. Under VST instruments I see only Absynth 3 and Pro 53, no references to midi instruments. Maybe this is where there's an SL and SX difference or I have something wrong? Did I get your meaning correct? Also, I see by your tag lines and name you have some...

mixdown... Ok, we I may be getting closer. And I think I was still explaining what I was doing incorrectly. 1. Midi track sends midi to outboard, hardware sampler or synth. 2. Create audio track with input from sampler/synth via mixer. 3. Play midi track, record to audio track. 4. Now that...

mixdown... Ok, I really didn't clarify, so my bad. When working with audio tracks, I want to apply vst insert effects and mixdown. As you will see below directly from the help file, only SX allows this. Interestingly, I've had an SX user who can't see the limitation and an SE user reply. If SE...

Cubase SL 2 to SL 3 and Tiger... Upgrade strategy... Ok, perhaps I was flaming a bit. I wanted to mix audio down with vst's and all applied effects - but only available in SX. I tried to mix the audio down on individual tracks, but was struggling to get that to work properly - and yes I've done...

Yes Cubase does this and that, but only in the "SX" version which is an overbloated seqeuncer I simply don't need to pay for. Steinberg is in for a surprise, Digital Performer 5 is now available as an upgrade for about $400 US dollars. That's competitive with Cubases junky, clunky software and...

to upgrade or not to upgrade Darryl, You might be wise to buy the upgrade while it's cheap, you can always install it later. So far so good but if you rely on Halion, wait a bit for a patch.

Reset automation tracks... you have to delete all the set points. Or you could just unclick the "R" button and set the level to whatever fixed value you want. You can also use the cursor to drag and select all of the points and then delete them. good luck... I'm going to do my laundry now<G>...

Automation... Yeah, I thought the automation was tricky too. View your automation track, the red squares on the blue automation line can be deleted, but they can also be moved around. Delete all those red dots. Then put one dot toward the beginning of the track, be sure the "R" is clicked on to...

Mostly good news... Here are the results of my Cubase SL2 to SL3 upgrade on Jaguar... Before step 1, there is the "registration" process. This is a confusing process but it does work. To get your new SL3 upgrade licensed try this: 1. Upgrade the License Control Center package. 2. Your old...

Cubase SL 2 to SL 3 and Tiger... Upgrade strategy... Ok, I purchased the SL3 upgrade because I could only take advantage of the $99.00 price until the end of September, 2005. Or at least that was the threat. I will be attempting the following, anyone who has advice thanks, if not, here's hoping...

I have seen that Steinberg has released a major patch for Cubase 3 that probably turns it into a usable product. I currently have Cubase 2.0 SL and am working but would like to upgrade my OS to Tiger. I can get the upgrade for $99.00, but should I? Anyone having good or bad experiences with...

I have a Kenton control freak and a Yamaha A4000 sampler. I'm connecting them via an m-audio 4x4 and my OSX laptop with Cubase SL. The control freak sends fine, it works with virtual synths and cubase. However, nothing I try with the A4000 seems to work. Why won't the A4000 respond to the...
